Git is starting to get to me.

I did a git pull from the latest master only to get a bunch of conflicts 
from the latest align submodule. I have never touched the align 
submodule locally so having conflict errors with it is absurd. After 
trying to straighten out the errors via a 'git reset --hard' for the 
align submodule, and still getting conflicts, I deleted the submodule 
locally just so I could get the latest master.

Now I can't seem to get back the submodule. No matter what I do the 
submodule is no longer recognized at the top level. What do I do ?

Yes git is powerful but it is also a VCS from hell. About the only 
intelligent thing I have ever heard Linux Torvalds say.
